Kim Kardashian has arrived on the red carpet at the 2022 Met Gala in a gown worn by Marilyn Monroe, which she paired with a newly blonde hairdo. The Kardashians star made her debut on the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art with ex’s her boyfriend, comedian Pete Davidson. For the occasion, the Skims founder chose a bedazzled sheer beige floor-length gown, which was previously worn by Monroe in 1962 to serenade President John F Kennedy on his 45th birthday.
While Kardashian wore the original dress while posing on the Met Gala steps, she later changed into a replica of the gown, as she told Vogue that she “would never want to sit in it or eat in it or have any risk of any Ԁамаɡe to it,” and had not worn the “kind of body makeup I usually do”.
The outlet also reported that Kardashian spent 14 hours bleaching her hair ahead of tonight’s Met Gala.
While speaking with Vogue on the red carpet, Kardashian also revealed that she plans to be blonde for “a while”. During the interview, Kardashian was then briefly joined by Davidson, who attempted to walk away before she urged him back.
